Description

Migration is essential to the evolution of life; yet this is ignored within contemporary political/ media discourses on refugees. Zugunruhe is composed of Eritrean, Egyptian, Iranian and Sudanese songs shared by residents of the Calais ‘Jungle’, interwoven with calls from globally migrating birds.

Join members of the project team for a panel discussion about the making of the project. Speakers include Dr Carl Sayer, Dr Claire Dwyer, Tom Bailey and Baraa Halabieh, a Syrian refugee involved with the project’s development.

Created by Tom Bailey and Simon Whetham (Southbank Centre 2016). Zugunruhe is an ornithological term describing a state of ‘migratory restlessness’ in birds.

Visitors are encouraged to register at the Festival hub, which is located at the Gower Street entrance to the Wilkins Building main quad. We will be escorting attendees to event locations approximately fifteen minutes before each session begins.
